With the holiday break behind us, it's time to see where local high school basketball teams sit in the conference standings.
The boys side of the TVC-Ohio once again sees Vinton Couny at the top of the tables, as they have jumped out to a 3-0 start in league play. Right behind are Wellston and Athens who both have one loss in TVC-Ohio games, however both teams have yet to play Vinton County so they are very much in the thick of the race at this point.
The boys half of the TVC-Hocking is very even this year, with just three wins separating first place from seventh. The Federal Hocking Lancers have jumped out to a 6-1 record in Hocking play, with their only league loss being a three-point defeat at the hands of the Belpre Golden Eagles. Belpre and Miller are hot on Fed Hock's trail, so the Lancers will need to keep up their winning ways as they face their league opponents a second time this season.
In the TVC-Ohio for girls, the Athens Lady Bulldogs are atop the standings with a perfect 4-0 mark, however Vinton County and Nelsonville-York are right behind at 3-1. Athens still has one more game against Vinton County and Nelsonville-York, so those matchups will be key in determining who wins the conference.
Finally, the TVC-Hocking has been dominated by Eastern in girls play, as they hold an 8-0 record in conference play. They have handedly defeated all of the Hocking teams once so far this season, and now they look to do the same a second time to lock up a conference championship.
Here are the league standings as of Sunday, Jan. 6.
